Lateef Gbolahan, A 32-year-old married man and father of one,
has been arrested by the Lagos State Police Command for allegedly
impregnating a 13-year-old girl, whose name was given as Esther.

Mr. Gbolahan was arrested by police detectives attached to Oke-Odo
Police Station after the parents of the girl, who are Gbolahan’s
neighbours, reported that he had been sleeping with her and got her
pregnant.

The police said that the girl is two months pregnant, and she confessed
that ‘Uncle’ Gbolahan had sex with her on since 2012 when she was 10
years old, On each occasion, the randy Gbolahan threatened to kill her
is she told anyone what transpired between them.The little girl was scared of what Gbolahan would do to her and as such,
refused to tell anyone what he was doing to her until people around
started to notice the swelling belly and the constant vomiting.
The
suspect, according to the police, has accepted responsibility for his
actions, though he pushed the blame, as usual, to the devil.
“it is the work of the devil. i used to send the girl on errand and when
you see her. she looks like a grown woman. her breast is very big but
inside bra it will look small, she used it to confuse me, Esther is not a
small girl, she know more thing about sex than i do. she used her mouth
to tell me to close the door the first day when i send her to buy
plantain. she was already doing it with other people before me. her hole
was very big when i go first time. she has confessed to me before that
Bamidele ( Another Tenant) is her boyfriend. police should arrest
Bamidele. it is not my baby. i do only three times. Officer, i am sorry,
it is the devil. if you release me i will marry her. please”

He said the girl came into his apartment after an errand and told him to lock the door and urged him to do it with her.

He said he slept with her only three times. Now the girl is two months
pregnant. The police has transferred the case to the State Criminal
Investigation Department (SCID), Panti.

mother has told the police that she does not want to pursue the case and
urged that the culprit should be released if he promises to take care
of the pregnant girl.
